Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

whether the proposal would accord with development plan policies relating to the location of development in the Borough
the effect of the proposed development on the character and appearance of the area

What decided it

The proposal would not constitute infilling within the meaning of policy H4 and would cause significant harm to the character and appearance of Hillclifflane, contrary to the development plan taken as a whole, with insufficient material considerations to outweigh this conflict.

the limited benefits of supporting local services, windfall development and housing supply were insufficient to outweigh the harm caused to the spatial strategy for the area and to the character and appearance of the settlement, and non-compliance with the development plan
